Dark Wizards are aggressive to players twice their level and lower, so players under level 47 should come prepared with food or turn on Protect from Magic.

A free, one-way teleport to this tower exists on the second floor of the Wizards' Guild. The south portal on that floor goes to the Dark Wizards' Tower. A player must have level 66 Magic to enter the Wizards' Guild. Please note that once you enter the portal, it will not be able to send you back.

Another free, one-way teleport exists from the Dark Wizards' Tower to the Lumbridge Swamp. To invoke it, players must climb to the top floor of the tower and talk to Zandar Horfyre. He will ask you to leave. If you refuse, he will teleport you to the swamp, very close to the Nexus.
